Silver carp are an invasive species in the US. First introduced in the 1970’s to help control algae growth in aquaculture and wastewater treatment ponds, they made their way into surrounding waterways. Due to lack of native predators and an extremely high reproduction rate—females lay-up to 5 million eggs per year! Silver carp have established massive populations in the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois rivers. They’ve created extreme competition for food sources for native species, destroying biodiversity in these waterways. Since carp is an invasive species, feeding carp to your pet is not only beneficial to them, but to our ecosystem as well.
